Assemblyman John D. Ceretto has announced
that the New York State Department of Parks, Recreation and Historic
Preservation has agreed to illuminate the Lewiston plateau dog park to provide
a safe, well-lit area in which residents can walk their pets after work. The
lighting of the dog park began Wednesday.

Ceretto made the request regarding
the lighting of the park after several residents contacted his office regarding
the availability of the park after dark. State Parks has agreed to provide
lighting for the park on weeknights from 4 to 8 p.m., until further notice.

"The lighting of the Artpark dog
park will provide a safe and fun environment in which residents can walk their
pets after work," Ceretto said. "I applaud the NYS Parks for the quick steps it
took to provide a valuable service to Lewiston residents and park visitors."
